WORK has started today (August, 8) to resurface the A444 Griff Way, inbound and outbound.
Work started on the A444 from Griff Island to Hospital Island, and the A444 Bedworth Bypass from Griff Island to Walsingham Drive Island in Nuneaton.
The project will continue for 28 consecutive days (excluding bank holiday) and will be carried out between 8pm and 6am.
Repairs involve replacing the road surface to 110mm deep across the carriageway making it smoother and safer.
Around £1.5million has been awarded for works on the A444, which has been allocated to bridge maintenance, contributing towards the work of the find and fix pothole crews, and replacing lighting at Junction 3 of the M6.
Coun Jan Matecki, Warwickshire County Council Portfolio Holder for Transport and Planning, said: “The additional money from Network North Funding has enabled us to allocate additional resource to a range of projects across the county that will benefit the highways network and the safety of those who use it.
“We have carefully assessed the needs of the A444 Nuneaton corridor.
“These works will ensure the approach to Nuneaton reflects our ambition for the town centre and that the carriageway is safe for the high volume of traffic it serves.
“We have scheduled work to cause minimal disruption to road users and we thank people in anticipation of their understanding while the work is ongoing.”
Work will be carried out as part of Warwickshire County Council’s commitment to improving road network throughout the county.
It is funded by the Government through the Network North Funding scheme.
